From "Baahubali - The Eternal War - Part 1" (Indian movie, 2027). Co-produced with French animation studio Alcyde, and several "Arcane" artists. Directed by Ishan Shukla ("Star Wars Visions" S2, "Schirkoa" Indian-French movie...). Full trailer >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdUP...

Reminder this is happening tomorrow!

It wasn't deep. It didn't have much to say. But Xiao Xiao inspired millions to try Flash animation for themselves. A Beijing artist made this series -- and turned stick fights into a phenomenon. We're exploring why and how he did it: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/when-stick...

The world often feels like it isn't made for freelancers who aren't in a pairing. Paying taxes on my own, healthcare on my own, tabling and traveling on my own, not having any of those burdens shared can make life much more expensive. I'm doing well, but well means paying more for everything!

When people hear that I'm returning to part time work they often ask "are things not going well with your art?" The problem really is things are going well, but the world is so unstable that I long for some consistency and income that I don't have to pay quarterly taxes on

Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.

I’ve been working as a full time contractor while juggling comics since 2018. Even with publisher royalties, TV options, Kickstarter takings and comic cons, I’ve made enough to chuck a little into my savings but that’s it. If this was my actual job I’d have starved to death years ago.

Ithaca in the Cards: Second Expedition is a storygame about doomed travelers on a perilous journey home. It's inspired by The Odyssey, and blackjack, and it's about how you deal with loss and the vagaries of fate as you desperately reach for home.

Although not spotlighted, POC of Latine heritage are a vital part of many European communities. Ours too. We're playing Pasión de las Pasiones by @blg.bsky.social & @magpiegames.bsky.social with an all Latine cast based in Europe. Supported by @luckyleafteas.bsky.social! TOMORROW: 7pm BST/8pm CEST

Being a villain is not easy. BBER is an epistolary game for two players where you’ll play as villains, scheme masterful plans and complain when they fail to your archvillain friend. studiotrinketmx.itch.io/big-bad-evil... #BeAVillain #Epistolary #RPG #Roleplaying

POV: you've just had some of the best cochinita pibil in Quintana Roo, and may be about to explode.

It’s not often you get a new VHS release but this one you won’t want to miss it. Available in all blockbusters near you, to be released soon. Breathless Frightmare Edition, the beloved zombie survival rpg that spawned over 280 different other TTRPGs. www.kickstarter.com/projects/myt...

Tis the season! The spooky season. Murderous Ghosts is a great one-shot for 2 to 20 players. You're a resourceful urban explorer, lost in a haunted building. Can you find your way out before the ghosts find you? Outlook uncertain! lumpley.itch.io/murderous-gh...

In the book The Black Cauldron, there is a great class of monster called the Huntsmen of Annuvin. When one died, his power flowed into the rest of them. The fewer there were, the harder they were to kill. Very gameable enemy.

Keith Ammann returns with another invaluable resource for game masters and designers

"Making Enemies is a powerful resource that will kickstart the imagination of any game master. Even if you're not in the business of designing monsters for your game, the insight, knowledge, and examples provided here will help you become a better GM and improve basically any campaign."

I wrote 30 horrible creatures for y'all to use in your Voidlight games on top of the 8 rolling tables for you to design your own. I want to get to 36 creatures.

Chiitan has a dream. I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past. I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination. Until then, let's all support each other🤍
